First and foremost... I would like to thank everyone here at ECF. Everything I've learned about vaping and researched on the subject has come primarily from this site. I would probably have never made the switch, without all the knowledge I gained here.
My name is Courtney, I'm 23 (barely, my birthday was 2 days ago!).. and I was born and raised right here in Rochester, NY. I've been smoking pretty consistently since I was about 14 years old, and mostly just out of habit. For the last 5-6 years or so, I've been smoking about a pack a day of full flavored menthol 100's. If anyone ever asked, I would say I love smoking, and that I would never give it up! I have never, ever tried quitting, it just wasn't a factor.
Well, a year ago I started losing weight, eating healthier and working out. (NOT a diet... but a lifestyle change). In the last year I have lost over 80 pounds, and I am feeling (& looking) better and healthier than ever! I started at a size 16, and now a size 6 is loose! So yeah, I underwent a huge change in my life, and with that same mentality of doing whatever I set my mind to; I am now banishing cigs for good!
I like to think of it like, I'm not quitting (cuz' of course, i'm no quitter), but I'm simply upgrading to something bigger & better & healthier & tastier!
About a month ago, I had a split second thought that life would be easier if I switched to vaping.. considering I really hate the taste & smell of cigarettes.. I'm only in it for the habit of putting something to my mouth, and exhaling smoke.. more or less. I then began my research, which led me here.. and there's no looking back now! Yesterday was my first day with NO ANALOGS, just all day vaping... and I love it!
My beginners purchase was for 2 vision spinner 2 1650mah batteries, along with 5 different kanger tanks (miniprotank3, aerotank2, EMOW, evodGlass, T3D), and a BVC Aspire Nautlius mini. (With loads of replaceable coil heads for both, obviously). I'm happy with my current set-up, of course it can and probably will be upgraded in the future., but I really couldn't be more pleased! Thank you everyone, happy to be a new vaper & ex-smoker!
